Question

What is the distance from (-1,-14) and (-2,-6)?

Answer 1

Answer:

d = $\sqrt{65}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points is found by

d = $\sqrt{( x2-x1)^2 + ( y2-y1)^2}$ where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points

d = $\sqrt{(-2 - -1)^2+(-6 - -14)^2 }$

d =$\sqrt{( -2+1)^2 + (-6+14)^2}$

d = $\sqrt{(-1)^2 +( 8)^2 }$

d = $\sqrt{1+64}$

d = $\sqrt{65}$
